Optimism creates a ripple effect during Mars in Sagittarius 

You’ll suddenly have fuel in your tank with Mars in Sagittarius.

Educate your mind. Sign up for an online workshop, watch TED talks and read fascinating books instead of slipping into social media bed rot or eating yourself into a holiday-leftovers food coma.

Start those inspiration engines! Mars in entrepreneurial, wisdom-seeking Sagittarius can spark ideas for an indie business or a teaching project. 

Let’s get physical! During this athletic transit, find ways to get active with outdoor sports or movement in nature, even if you have to bundle up.

In love, Mars dares you to venture into uncharted territory

Single? Shoot your shot with someone who diverges from your usual type. Coupled? Plan an adventurous trip or sneak away for drives whenever you can. Whether you’re checking out a country craft fair or big city lights, a change of scenery could reignite the spark. 

All told, the vibe of Mars in Sagittarius calls for big, expressive love. Bolstering those efforts even further is Venus, the other “love planet” riding alongside Mars from November 6-30 in Scorpio. As fire meets water, watch for those puffs of sexy smoke signals. 

If you’re traveling, beware Mercury retrograde!

Planning travel? While Mars boards a flight through Sagittarius, it’s hard to stay in one place for long. But this year, you’ll need to triple check your plans. Along with the U.S. government shut-down affecting air-traffic controllers, the last Mercury retrograde of 2025 also dovetails with part of Mars in Sagittarius, from November 9 to 29.

Your Mars in Sagittarius 2025 horoscope

Below are horoscopes for every zodiac sign for the Mars in Sagittarius transit, from November 4 to December 15, 2025. You can read for your Sun sign or your rising sign.

♈️ ARIES (Mar 20-Apr 19): Widen the angle on your viewfinder, Aries. From November 4 to December 15, your galactic guardian, Mars, grooves through Sagittarius, electrifying your expansive ninth house. This intrepid cycle is an ideal time for exploring far-flung locales, enrolling in continuing education or doing some dev-work on an entrepreneurial venture. Face your resistance and pursue your EOY goals with gusto. Sure, you might land outside your comfort zone—but that’s where the growth happens. Already “been there, done that”? Maybe it’s time to memorialize your amazing experiences in a book! Aries horoscopes, read more!

♉️ TAURUS (Apr 19-May 20): Mystery, power, seduction: yes, please! On November 4, red-hot Mars grooves into Sagittarius and your seductive eighth house until December 15. Make room for two (or maybe more) in the hibernation station because lusty Mars could bring some serious sexytime over the coming six weeks. But don’t take anything (or anyone!) at face value. Things may not be what they seem during this esoteric cycle. Whether you’re developing a business partnership or pursuing a love interest, anything you take on now will have lasting consequences. You’ll love hard, but look out, Bull! The emerald-eyed monster could rear its head on the regular. Try not to feed that jealous beast.

♊️ GEMINI (May 20-Jun 20): It takes two to make a thing go right—something the zodiac’s Twin intuitively understands. Lusty Mars sashays into Sagittarius and your seventh house of partnerships from November 4 to December 15, making your duets even more dynamic. Choose your dance partners carefully. A complementary force might be your best bet for success. But with warrior Mars at the wheel, opposites attract AND repel in equal measure. While it’s natural to disagree from time to time, you need to share core values. Screen potential candidates carefully. Mars can be impatient, but there’s no need to commit ASAP—even if the other person is urging you to merge. Take things one step at a time and stay within everyone’s comfort zone. Gemini horoscopes, read more!

♋️ CANCER (Jun 20-Jul 22): The wellness wagon pulls up to your front door on November 4, Cancer, as motivator Mars zooms into Sagittarius and activates your healthy-living sixth house until December 15. With your fluctuating moods, you can struggle to get into a routine, but you always feel best when you’re active. (Yes, even during the holiday season!) Enlist a fitness buddy or trainer to help you stay on track or jump into a webinar that a health coach is putting on (bonus if it includes a supportive online group). As Mars tends to amp up stress, don’t expect perfection or overnight results. Pace yourself and build on what you’re doing right. Cancer horoscopes, read more!

♌️ LEO (Jul 22-Aug 22): Your roar will get a whole lot louder—and more seductive—as red-hot Mars pulses into Sagittarius and your passionate fifth house November 4 to December 15. Ready for a romantic renaissance? Position yourself as the pursuer, Leo, but play the game strategically so you don’t overwhelm the object of your affections. What’s next: Do you want engagement baubles or maybe just more IRL time? This fertile cycle could potentially bring a visit from le stork. No matter what your relationship status is, you’re an unapologetic scene stealer with Mars in Sagittarius. Embrace maximalism as a style ethos—and be sure to wear your heart on your dramatic puff sleeve! Leo horoscopes, read more!

♍️ VIRGO (Aug 22-Sep 22): Home is where the HEAT is for Virgo as lusty Mars lumbers through Sagittarius and your domestic fourth house November 4 to December 15. Not exactly loving where you live? Mars brings ample motivation to redecorate, renovate or relocate if you simply NEED a new space. Since this restless Mars in Sagittarius transit can generate stress with family members or roomies, make sure you’re in agreement about house rules and holiday plans. If everyone’s on a different page, don’t start barking orders. Call a meeting and come up with a plan that works for ALL parties involved. Virgo horoscopes, read more!

♎️ LIBRA (Sep 22-Oct 22): Gift of gab? That would be putting it mildly! Firestarter Mars blasts into Sagittarius and your third house of communication (November 4 to December 15), you’ll have ‘em before you utter the first hello. But don’t keep quiet; bring on the mic drops! Your words will hold sway over your community—a power you should use judiciously. Warning: Mars’ energy is often fierce and combative. While you can certainly get people fired up for a cause, be careful not to start any wars from up on your soapbox. You’re the zodiac’s peacekeeper, and your talent for negotiating win-wins is something this polarized world could use more of right now. Libra horoscopes, read more!

♏️ SCORPIO (Oct 22-Nov 21): Roll up your sleeves and reap the rewards. Go-getter Mars bursts into Sagittarius and activates your second house of money and security from November 4 to December 15. Your motivation tanks are topped up, and you’re eager to get your financial life running like a well-oiled machine BEFORE the new year kicks in. Shift into focus mode and don’t be afraid to break a sweat. Bring your competitive edge and pursue leads fearlessly, whether you’re going after a dream client, plum assignment or brand-new gig. One catch: Beware the lure of retail therapy splurges. This Mars in Sagittarius phase can make you quick to add-to-cart, especially with holiday sales rolling in. Scorpio horoscopes, read more!

♐️ SAGITTARIUS (Nov 21-Dec 21): Ain’t no stopping you now! Go-getter Mars zooms into Sagittarius November 4 to December 15, filling your motivation tanks with premium rocket fuel. The red planet only visits your sign every other year, so hit the gas on your passion projects and ambitious pursuits. You’ll be quite persuasive for the next six weeks, but make sure you don’t heap on TOO much pressure. Since Mars can be an energizer AND an agitator, you may not realize how strong you’re coming on. Get your holiday season fitness plan in place. (Yes, we said that.) With so much percolating power in your system, you’re going to need to get physical in order to blow off some steam! Sagittarius horoscopes, read more!

♑️ CAPRICORN (Dec 21-Jan 19): Burning the candle at both ends there, Capricorn? Nothing wrong with finishing the year off on a strong note—as long as you don’t ignore your very human need to pause, rest and reflect. Bring better balance to your schedule today as motivator Mars nests in Sagittarius and your rejuvenating twelfth house November 4 to December 15. Your most brilliant ideas may arise while you’re journaling with a cup of chai or sitting in lotus position on your meditation cushion. This Mars cycle will have your subconscious mind revving in fifth gear, which could bring bouts of insomnia. Go “screens-free” for at least an hour before you hit the sheets. You’ll sleep much better if you read a paperback instead of texting to support your anxious friend or watching stressful news shows. Capricorn horoscopes, read more!

♒️ AQUARIUS (Jan 20-Feb 18): Feeling lonely at the top, Aquarius? With go-getter Mars zipping through your career zone for the past six weeks, you’ve been giving those goals your all. But on November 4, as the motivation planet blasts into Sagittarius and your communal eleventh house until December 15, you’re ready to start collaborating again. Seek out other like-minded idealists and band together to create something epic. You’re a master networker, both online and IRL, so let the outreach begin. Let everyone weigh in before you zoom ahead; invite their feedback and input. Amazing ideas can emerge from the hivemind over the coming six weeks with Mars in Sagittarius! Aquarius horoscopes, read more!

♓️ PISCES (Feb 18-Mar 20): Up, up and away! Dynamo Mars bursts into Sagittarius, activating your ambitious tenth house from November 4 to December 15. Since the Mars in Sagittarius transit only takes place every two years, maximize its potent powers by pursuing your loftiest goals. Whether you’re delivering a presentation or wooing a dream client, level up with strong graphics, fancy power lunches and solid data that support your pitch. The only catch? Stressful Mars could increase demands on the job and make you prone to workaholism. Nothing wrong with burning the midnight oil, Pisces, but even your nocturnal sign needs a good night’s sleep!
